Responding to the announcement that KEPCO has been selected as preferred bidder for NuGen, Tom Greatrex, Chief Executive of the Nuclear Industry Association, said:

“This is an important step towards ensuring the UK has the low carbon generation capacity required to meet our power demands for the future. West Cumbria has a long-established and highly-skilled nuclear workforce in an industry which contributes £4.3 billion to the north west economy. This is a real opportunity for new, secure, reliable and clean power which will add to that economic footprint.”
